Celebrating the success of the DBS and V12 Vantage the new special editions feature bespoke Carbon Black metallic paint especially formulated with a subtle metallic twist to create a deep rich patina.
Each car will undergo 50 man-hours of hand painting followed by stringent quality checks.
For the V12 Vantage the iconic Aston Martin side strake has been fashioned from real carbon fibre backed by a black mesh and complimented with gloss black 10 spoke diamond turned alloy wheels.
A bright finished grille and front parking sensors (normally an option) complete the exterior detailing.
Inside, owners will be greeted to swathes of Obsidian Black leather highlighted with a contrast silver coarse stitch all hand stitched.
Lightweight seats formed from Carbon Fibre and Kevlar saving 17 kg over the standard seat also feature together with Piano black facia trim, centre stack and centre console, anodised black tread plates and unique sill plaques build on the carbon theme.
The Aston Martin 700w Premium Audio System is delivered as standard in the V12 Vantage while the DBS boasts the Bang & Olufsen Beosound DBS audio system as standard.
Customers who order a Carbon Black Edition V12 Vantage will have the opportunity to experience Aston Martin’s Performance Driving Course (UK and Europe only) free of charge.
The final pricing of the Carbon Black Editions is expected to be approximately 5% over current base prices. Deliveries will begin in March 2010.
